There is such a thing as scope eyebrow. There is also a phenomena where the impact on the eyebrow is from your eyeglasses frame as the scope impacts on the polycarbonate lenses less than an inch from your eye. That gets your attention. I got used to over 4 inches when I used Leupold 6x36 and 6x42, was very comfortable with 3.9 to 4 inches with Zeiss Conquest and am comfortable with 3.75" in Meopta 6x42. The Swarovski's I had years ago had less eye relief and a rebounding eyepiece that did rebound.
